Mutually Exclusive vs. Independent vs. Complementary

Mutually Exclusive Events	If event A happens, then event B cannot, or vice-versa.
Independent Events	The outcome of event A has no effect on the outcome of event B.
Complementary Events	If the two events are the only possible outcomes, they are complementary. The outcome is either A or B only.
If A and B are mutually exclusive, they cannot be independent. Flip heads/Flip tails If A and B are independent, they cannot be mutually exclusive. Roll a 3/Flip tails If A and B are complementary, they cannot be independent. Flip heads/Flip tails either-or If A and B are complementary, they are mutually exclusive Flip heads OR Flip tails
